In reply to Mick Ryan - UKClimbing.com:
I found the re-enactment video in particular really interesting. Looks like a well thought-out re-enactment.
It's an interesting point that I now habitually carry a long ice axe when summer climbing on the West Face of Aonach Dubh, as I find that many of the more neglected ridges there require the cleaning of turf or mud from holds. Perhaps in some cases not a great deal has changed.
